Buttigieg picks sides in Iowa

Pete Buttigieg is endorsing state Rep. Josh Turek in a heated Senate Democratic primary in Iowa, showing his willingness to engage in contested primaries ahead of another possible presidential campaign. This move could help elevate Turek and potentially give Buttigieg a valuable ally if he runs in 2028. The endorsement comes after Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren visited Iowa to campaign for Turek's opponent, state Sen. Zach Wahls.
